[Aaron speaking]
3
00:00:45,100 --> 00:00:49,333
After my claims that
Nick Carter sexually
assaulted me...
4
00:00:52,266 --> 00:00:55,166
I experiencedtwo years of harassment,
5
00:00:56,066 --> 00:00:58,333
and people not believing me.
6
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,000
Aaron Carter
owed me nothing.
7
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:08,166
Everybody, um, out therejust let Melissatell her story.
8
00:01:08,166 --> 00:01:10,867
[Melissa] He did nothave to stand up.
9
00:01:10,867 --> 00:01:14,266
But he started
speaking out a lot.
10
00:01:17,266 --> 00:01:21,166
[Aaron]
I'm a massive silent striker,and I'm not gonna stop.
11
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,100
[Scaachi Koul]
Aaron talking aboutall these women
12
00:01:26,100 --> 00:01:29,767
that Nick is allegedto have assaulted,
13
00:01:29,834 --> 00:01:31,567
forces it back
into the public consciousness.
14
00:01:31,567 --> 00:01:33,567
[reporter] Aaron shareda lengthy rant accusing Nick
15
00:01:33,634 --> 00:01:35,166
of being violentwith several women.
16
00:01:36,467 --> 00:01:38,567
[Jen] Aaron madeeverything public.
17
00:01:38,634 --> 00:01:42,533
[Aaron] He abused memy whole childhood.
18
00:01:44,166 --> 00:01:46,567
He was taught any publicity
is good publicity.
19
00:01:46,567 --> 00:01:48,834
-Don't spit in my face.
I'm sick of you doing this.
-You'll respect me.
20
00:01:49,767 --> 00:01:52,467
The dysfunction
is real and deep.
21
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:57,734
Made worse by spending
formative years
in the public eye.
22
00:01:58,767 --> 00:02:02,433
With both of them,
there is a root cause
of the chaos.
23
00:02:03,667 --> 00:02:05,767
[John Spaulding]
Nick and Aaronare both victims
24
00:02:05,767 --> 00:02:09,233
of bad parenting,of poor choices,
25
00:02:10,100 --> 00:02:11,934
of neglect.
26
00:02:17,367 --> 00:02:19,166
The damage was irrevocable.
27
00:02:21,066 --> 00:02:25,834
[Zena Burns]
I think Aaron deservesfor people to know
28
00:02:26,767 --> 00:02:28,367
what he had to go through.
29
00:02:29,367 --> 00:02:32,767
It is incredibly,incredibly tragic.
30
00:02:32,767 --> 00:02:34,533
[sirens blaring]
31
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,367
[interviewer]
What are your ambitions?
32
00:02:50,367 --> 00:02:52,767
You're going to be famous...You are famous now.
33
00:02:52,767 --> 00:02:55,967
Are you going to beas big, do you think,as, uh, Nick?
34
00:02:56,033 --> 00:02:57,467
As Nick? Uh...
35
00:02:58,367 --> 00:03:00,100
I don't know.I mean, I hope so.
36
00:03:00,100 --> 00:03:03,266
But not really
in the sense of being big.
37
00:03:03,266 --> 00:03:07,567
Just having a good time,
and succeeding in my life
and fulfilling my goals
38
00:03:07,567 --> 00:03:09,433
is all that really matters.
39
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,033
[Mark Giovi] Aaron hadwhat you called the X factor.
40
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,734
I call it
"the David Lee Roth thing."
41
00:03:22,100 --> 00:03:24,567
I was Aaron Carter'stour manager.
42
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,066
He would walk outon the stage,
43
00:03:27,133 --> 00:03:30,667
and you could
just see the fans,
the girls, going crazy.
44
00:03:30,667 --> 00:03:32,667
[announcer]
Aaron Carter! Whoo-hoo!
45
00:03:32,667 --> 00:03:34,066
Hello.
46
00:03:36,100 --> 00:03:38,000
[Lori Majewski]
And we think Nick was young.
47
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,166
He was 13 when he gets
into the Backstreet Boys,
48
00:03:40,166 --> 00:03:43,767
seventeen when they hadthat immense success.
49
00:03:43,834 --> 00:03:46,066
Aaron was
in the single digits.
50
00:03:47,767 --> 00:03:51,867
I don't know
that anyone expected Aaron
to take off just as quickly
51
00:03:51,867 --> 00:03:55,367
and just as big
as he took off.
52
00:03:55,367 --> 00:03:58,467
Aaron's first albumcame out when he was nine,
53
00:03:58,467 --> 00:04:01,233
and he sold a million albums
by the time he was ten.
54
00:04:03,166 --> 00:04:06,667
Aaron's Party (Come Get It)
went triple platinum.
55
00:04:06,667 --> 00:04:08,667
♪ I want candy ♪
56
00:04:08,667 --> 00:04:10,667
[Zena] "I Want Candy,"that was a bop.
57
00:04:10,734 --> 00:04:12,367
There was an effervescentquality to it.
58
00:04:12,367 --> 00:04:14,967
Happy, fun.
59
00:04:14,967 --> 00:04:17,367
It just puts
a smile on your face.
60
00:04:18,367 --> 00:04:20,667
[Mark] Watching himgrow through the years
61
00:04:20,667 --> 00:04:25,634
and watching
his career turn into
this headlining act,
62
00:04:27,066 --> 00:04:28,934
it was an interesting ride.
63
00:04:31,467 --> 00:04:33,066
[John] There wasan extended period of time
64
00:04:33,133 --> 00:04:35,333
where, uh, Aaron
was not around Nick.
65
00:04:37,100 --> 00:04:39,433
And Aaron desperately missedhis brother.
66
00:04:41,900 --> 00:04:46,767
And while Aaron was on tour,we brought Nick out on stageat the end of the concert.
67
00:04:49,367 --> 00:04:51,467
And Aaron just broke downinto tears.
68
00:04:51,467 --> 00:04:54,567
[Nick] I decidedto make a guest appearancefor my little brother.
69
00:04:55,967 --> 00:04:57,567
[John] They lovedeach other, obviously.
70
00:05:00,367 --> 00:05:01,867
It was a shamethat they had to spend
71
00:05:01,867 --> 00:05:04,033
so much timeaway from each other.
72
00:05:07,100 --> 00:05:13,000
I saw it as Nick and Aaron
had been robbed
73
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:20,467
of a fundamental
relationship in a family
between two brothers.
74
00:05:20,467 --> 00:05:23,634
Because they had to focuson their careers.
75
00:05:27,867 --> 00:05:31,834
Jane Carter was
the quintessential stage mom.
76
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:38,567
The stories of the Carters'financial strugglesare no secret.
77
00:05:38,567 --> 00:05:43,066
And afterLou Pearlman put togetherthe Backstreet Boys,
78
00:05:43,066 --> 00:05:49,266
the financial rewards
of putting Nick through
the Lou Pearlman star factory
79
00:05:49,266 --> 00:05:56,367
were lucrative enough
that, I think, when Jane
saw the opportunity
80
00:05:56,433 --> 00:06:03,367
for another one of her sons
to be rich and famous,
she jumped at it.
81
00:06:03,367 --> 00:06:07,533
And thus Louand Trans Continental Recordsstarted working with Aaron.
82
00:06:09,767 --> 00:06:12,467
Nick was floating
his family.
83
00:06:12,467 --> 00:06:14,100
He was the reasonthat the rest of the family
84
00:06:14,100 --> 00:06:16,634
was able to move intoa nicer house.
85
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,100
But there were always whispers
around Lou Pearlman
86
00:06:21,100 --> 00:06:25,634
that he was inappropriate
with his underage talent.
87
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:33,266
[Bob Curiano]
When I first heard the rumor,I wasn't surprised.
88
00:06:33,333 --> 00:06:35,867
Lou was very keyed into
the way you looked.
89
00:06:35,867 --> 00:06:38,467
He wanted you
to come over and work out.
90
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:43,066
And he actually
had, uh, a method
91
00:06:43,133 --> 00:06:46,734
that he would sculpt your abs
to look a certain way.
92
00:06:47,667 --> 00:06:51,166
He had tried it on me
in the early days.
93
00:06:51,166 --> 00:06:54,066
And 20 years later,
it's in the news
94
00:06:54,133 --> 00:06:56,233
that he wasdoing it with them.
95
00:07:00,367 --> 00:07:04,734
I don't know how far it went,
but he was grooming boys.
96
00:07:09,100 --> 00:07:10,634
[photographer 1] Nick,can you get a...Can you wave?
97
00:07:11,567 --> 00:07:13,634
[photographer 2]
And last big smile
right at me, Nick.
98
00:07:14,700 --> 00:07:16,367
[Scaachi]
Nick, in his memoir, denied
99
00:07:16,367 --> 00:07:19,166
that there wasanything inappropriatebetween him and Lou.
100
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,467
But Jane had done
interviews before
101
00:07:24,533 --> 00:07:27,567
where she had said that
there was something amiss
102
00:07:27,567 --> 00:07:29,433
between Lou
and her eldest son.
103
00:07:33,266 --> 00:07:37,066
She neverreally, really says itwith her whole chest.
104
00:07:37,133 --> 00:07:41,367
But if Jane thought
that Lou was doing anything
with her eldest son,
105
00:07:41,433 --> 00:07:42,567
I don't knowwhat she was thinking
106
00:07:42,634 --> 00:07:45,934
giving heryoungest child then to Lou.
107
00:07:48,367 --> 00:07:51,867
[Bob] What is the priceyou'll pay for fame?
108
00:07:51,934 --> 00:07:55,834
Just how much will you give up
to become famous?
109
00:07:57,567 --> 00:07:58,767
[John]
When they were married,
110
00:07:58,834 --> 00:08:01,367
Jane and Bob managedNick and Aaron.
111
00:08:01,367 --> 00:08:07,467
But when Nick turned 18,he removed his parentsfrom being his managers.
112
00:08:07,533 --> 00:08:11,367
He wanted more
from his relationship
with them.
113
00:08:11,433 --> 00:08:15,567
They lashed out at himin retaliationfor feeling that way.
114
00:08:16,700 --> 00:08:18,767
It still bothers him
to this day.
115
00:08:18,767 --> 00:08:20,467
It wasn't
for lack of Nick trying
116
00:08:20,533 --> 00:08:22,166
to have a mother figure
in his life.
117
00:08:22,233 --> 00:08:24,967
She just wasn't available
to him at that capacity.
118
00:08:26,567 --> 00:08:29,033
[John] Jane and Bobwere focused on money.
119
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:31,767
They took
the responsibility from Nick
120
00:08:31,767 --> 00:08:34,166
and placed it on Aaron
at a very young age.
121
00:08:35,567 --> 00:08:37,033
It's your job now.
122
00:08:41,967 --> 00:08:44,367
-[woman 1] Can we get a, uh--
-[man 1] Caption.
123
00:08:44,367 --> 00:08:46,166
-[man 2]
He's into it. He's into it.
-[woman 2] Aaron Carter.
124
00:08:46,233 --> 00:08:47,867
He's, uh,
Nick Carter's little brother.
125
00:08:47,934 --> 00:08:49,767
[woman 1] Aaron,
point at me right here.
126
00:08:49,767 --> 00:08:51,934
[overlapping conversations]
127
00:08:54,467 --> 00:08:59,066
No child should have
to think about the well-being
of his family at that age.
128
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:01,266
[photographer] Aaron!
129
00:09:01,266 --> 00:09:02,367
[John]
And it spilled over
130
00:09:02,367 --> 00:09:04,433
onto Aaronand Nick's relationship.
131
00:09:07,667 --> 00:09:10,567
I felt like there was
a little bit of bitterness
from Jane to Nick
132
00:09:10,567 --> 00:09:13,867
because he did decide
to go off on his own
133
00:09:13,934 --> 00:09:16,834
and become financiallyindependent from the family.
134
00:09:19,100 --> 00:09:23,367
So then Jane wasin Aaron's ear all the time.
135
00:09:23,433 --> 00:09:25,767
Anytime Aaron didn't want
to do anything,
136
00:09:25,767 --> 00:09:27,634
"Well, do you think
Nick takes a break?"
137
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:33,367
And I even heard Bob sayto Aaron one time,
138
00:09:33,433 --> 00:09:35,467
"You're never gonna beas good as your brother."
139
00:09:39,166 --> 00:09:43,066
That ended upbeing a massive chipon Aaron's shoulder.
140
00:09:44,300 --> 00:09:47,100
He didn't necessarily
want to be in the shadows.
141
00:09:47,100 --> 00:09:48,567
He wanted his own thing.
142
00:09:48,567 --> 00:09:50,433
Did you get famousfrom your brother?
143
00:09:51,767 --> 00:09:53,767
Um, I have a very goodrelationship with Nick.
144
00:09:53,834 --> 00:10:00,667
He didn't like to be reminded
he wasn't at the same level
of his brother.
145
00:10:00,734 --> 00:10:02,266
[Jen] Nick had no idea.
146
00:10:02,266 --> 00:10:06,967
He didn't know
that this was happening,
you know, in the background.
147
00:10:06,967 --> 00:10:11,000
So one minute,Aaron was really happyand couldn't wait to see him,
148
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,066
the next minute,
"You're my competition."
149
00:10:14,567 --> 00:10:17,433
[Mark] Jane and Bob Carterdid some great things
150
00:10:18,867 --> 00:10:22,100
and advanced his career
to what it was.
151
00:10:22,100 --> 00:10:25,834
But they also didsome negative things.
152
00:10:27,567 --> 00:10:32,867
They treated the children
like employees.
153
00:10:40,266 --> 00:10:43,266
Aaron had the opportunityto be on Broadway,
154
00:10:43,266 --> 00:10:48,266
which wasan amazing accomplishmentfor a 13-year-old.
155
00:10:48,266 --> 00:10:50,934
And it was the lead character
for Seussical, the musical.
156
00:10:53,767 --> 00:10:56,367
[reporter]
Carter is taking on Broadway.
157
00:10:56,367 --> 00:11:01,266
Seussical's producers hopehis young fans will fillthe seats to see their idol.
158
00:11:01,266 --> 00:11:04,867
Screaming is allowed,but not screaming"I want candy."
159
00:11:04,867 --> 00:11:06,066
He did a great job.
160
00:11:07,967 --> 00:11:09,333
But it was grueling.
161
00:11:10,266 --> 00:11:12,667
And he had six shows a week.
162
00:11:12,667 --> 00:11:14,867
And his family, I guess,
said they were going to go
163
00:11:14,867 --> 00:11:18,367
on a family vacation
when Aaron was done.
164
00:11:18,367 --> 00:11:20,066
He was very much
looking forward to that.
165
00:11:22,700 --> 00:11:26,166
After the show, one night,he found out that his parents
166
00:11:26,233 --> 00:11:31,266
and his siblings were alreadyon the family vacationwithout him.
167
00:11:32,367 --> 00:11:35,533
He was so angry
at his family.
168
00:11:40,166 --> 00:11:44,133
He then picked up a knife
and put it towards the side
of his head.
169
00:11:45,967 --> 00:11:50,767
And we were all like,"Dude, what are you doing?
170
00:11:50,767 --> 00:11:53,233
Just put it down,put it down, put it down,put it down."
171
00:11:54,567 --> 00:11:59,367
And then his bodyguard
went up to him and took it.
172
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:05,567
That was one of
the scariest moments,
173
00:12:05,567 --> 00:12:09,734
um, that I've ever had
working for Aaron.
174
00:12:12,567 --> 00:12:14,667
Nick talked to himon the phone.
175
00:12:14,667 --> 00:12:19,233
But his parents
didn't come up to New York
to see him after that.
176
00:12:24,266 --> 00:12:27,166
I... I can'texplain that to you.
177
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,367
[John] When yourchild's a superstar,
178
00:12:31,367 --> 00:12:33,867
I would like to knowhow he's feeling.
179
00:12:33,867 --> 00:12:36,533
How it's affecting him
emotionally, mentally.
180
00:12:39,100 --> 00:12:43,734
I just don't feel that,uh, the parents were playingtheir role as parents should.
181
00:12:48,300 --> 00:12:50,967
[Scaachi] The Carterscreated children
182
00:12:51,033 --> 00:12:56,166
that were
disproportionately responsible
for the family surviving.
183
00:13:00,467 --> 00:13:02,266
That is so gonna
[bleep] with you.
184
00:13:03,567 --> 00:13:05,567
[Jen] I saw Aaron gofrom this beautiful,
185
00:13:05,634 --> 00:13:08,166
shining bright light
of a human being,
186
00:13:08,166 --> 00:13:10,834
who had everything
at the palm of his hands,
187
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:16,166
to adult issues
being thrown on him.
188
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,567
And irresponsibility.And just insanity.
189
00:13:29,367 --> 00:13:31,367
[Kaya Jones]
This is a hard photo
for me to look at
190
00:13:32,667 --> 00:13:35,367
because it's how
I first met them.
191
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:42,967
Super happy brothers,
but then weren't.
192
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,433
When we were together,Aaron came to livewith me and Nick.
193
00:13:56,166 --> 00:13:58,567
He was so childlikeall the time,
194
00:13:58,634 --> 00:14:00,767
you know,
even though he was 16.
195
00:14:00,834 --> 00:14:03,467
So Nick was like a dad to him
at periods of time.
196
00:14:03,467 --> 00:14:05,166
People just come here
to just have fun.
197
00:14:05,166 --> 00:14:08,867
-That's why I'm here,
you know, with him.
-[man] Yeah, exactly.
198
00:14:08,934 --> 00:14:11,266
[Kaya] A lot of the siblingslooked up to Nick,
199
00:14:11,333 --> 00:14:15,233
and he was goodto his siblings at times.
200
00:14:15,900 --> 00:14:18,533
Bobbie Jeanlived with us, too.
201
00:14:20,100 --> 00:14:22,967
But Nick wanted
nothing to do with his mother.
202
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:25,767
He didn't want herin his life.
203
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,333
That might explain
why he doesn't have
a lot of respect for women.
204
00:14:33,500 --> 00:14:36,066
But I never sawthat part of himin the beginning.
205
00:14:36,066 --> 00:14:39,367
He was actually sober
when we were together.
206
00:14:40,767 --> 00:14:42,567
But whenhe started drinking,
207
00:14:42,567 --> 00:14:44,634
it becamea whole other thing.
208
00:14:47,500 --> 00:14:50,266
[Dave Holmes] Nick had hadsome issues with alcohol.
209
00:14:51,567 --> 00:14:53,467
This was at the timein his career
210
00:14:53,467 --> 00:14:57,834
when the Backstreet thing
is kind of off its peak.
211
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:08,033
When he started to drink,
he just couldn't stop.
212
00:15:09,867 --> 00:15:12,266
It's bad when you'rea girlfriend to someone,
213
00:15:12,266 --> 00:15:13,767
and you'rein a recording studio,
214
00:15:15,567 --> 00:15:18,367
and your boyfriend vomited
all over the studio.
215
00:15:20,667 --> 00:15:22,767
When Nick was drunk,he was very chaotic.
216
00:15:23,700 --> 00:15:27,266
After I left him,
he got a horrible DUI.
217
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,266
You can see, like,something is going on.
218
00:15:33,567 --> 00:15:39,467
The alcohol played a big part
in the downfall of the family.
219
00:15:42,066 --> 00:15:45,867
I had smoked pot
with my Uncle Bob
a couple of times.
220
00:15:45,867 --> 00:15:51,367
It was me, himand Nick and Aaron'soldest sister, Bobbie Jean.
221
00:15:51,433 --> 00:15:56,266
But from what I saw,none of them were doinganything heavy.
222
00:15:56,266 --> 00:15:59,367
I think the separation
of the family is what
started that,
223
00:15:59,367 --> 00:16:02,734
because Bob was more inclinedto do those things.
224
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:08,066
When Jane and Bob split up,
Jane moved off the property.
225
00:16:10,467 --> 00:16:14,033
Aaron told methat he would break intoBob's safe to get Xanax.
226
00:16:15,867 --> 00:16:17,834
I wasn't surprised.
227
00:16:19,367 --> 00:16:22,967
I would findthese aerosol cansaround the compound,
228
00:16:22,967 --> 00:16:26,634
and I found out
that Aaron was using those
aerosol cans to get high.
229
00:16:31,100 --> 00:16:33,567
[John] Aaron washuffing paint with his dad.
230
00:16:34,900 --> 00:16:39,166
I don't know
how Bob even got into that
231
00:16:39,233 --> 00:16:40,834
and then doing thatwith his son.
232
00:16:43,100 --> 00:16:45,000
Had I had
the ability to stop it,
233
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,667
uh, to do something about it,
uh, I would have...
234
00:16:48,967 --> 00:16:50,634
I would have immediately.
235
00:16:52,266 --> 00:16:55,667
[Jen] I rememberhaving a conversationwith Jane about it.
236
00:16:55,667 --> 00:16:59,767
I don't know
what happened after that,
but nothing changed.
237
00:17:01,166 --> 00:17:03,767
There's not enoughanxiety medicine in the world
238
00:17:03,767 --> 00:17:06,266
that can take awaythe pain that a child feels
239
00:17:06,266 --> 00:17:09,166
being neglected
by their family.
240
00:17:12,867 --> 00:17:17,266
As a teenager, Aaron filed
for legal emancipation
from his mother, Jane.
241
00:17:18,700 --> 00:17:22,567
He alleged that she hadembezzled $100,000 from him,
242
00:17:22,567 --> 00:17:26,667
and he no longer
wanted her involved
in his business dealings.
243
00:17:26,734 --> 00:17:29,333
Nor did he want
to legally be her son.
244
00:17:31,100 --> 00:17:36,266
There were lots of reports,and Aaron got really raw.
245
00:17:36,266 --> 00:17:37,567
It had a lot to do with anger,
246
00:17:37,567 --> 00:17:40,567
but I love her,
and she's still my mother.
247
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,266
[Zena]
At the end of the day,
248
00:17:43,266 --> 00:17:47,867
he didn't follow throughwith the emancipation filing.
249
00:17:47,867 --> 00:17:54,433
But there did seem to be
a culture in the Carter family
of fighting and chaos.
250
00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:01,066
This is a family that was
so steeped in pop culture
from the '90s on.
251
00:18:02,767 --> 00:18:06,367
If you watch Nick and Aaron'sreality show House of Carters,
252
00:18:06,433 --> 00:18:09,867
it's a really interesting look
at that family dynamic.
253
00:18:09,934 --> 00:18:12,266
All the siblings are living
in the same house together
254
00:18:12,266 --> 00:18:13,867
for the first time
since they were kids.
255
00:18:13,867 --> 00:18:15,166
Let's tell you
something real quick.
256
00:18:15,166 --> 00:18:17,867
You're gonna turn
the [bleep] music down
and respect me.
257
00:18:17,867 --> 00:18:19,266
-All right? All right?
-Don't spit in my face, dawg.
258
00:18:19,266 --> 00:18:20,967
-Don't spit in my face.
-All right? All right?
259
00:18:21,033 --> 00:18:24,767
Nick and Aaron
get in a physical fight
in one episode.
260
00:18:24,834 --> 00:18:28,367
Aaron is, sort of,shoved into this roomby his brother.
261
00:18:28,433 --> 00:18:31,867
The door is closed,
and all you hear
is this scuffle.
262
00:18:31,867 --> 00:18:36,066
And then these boys
emerge puffy and crying.
263
00:18:36,133 --> 00:18:40,166
You are not a good person,
and everybody sees it, Nick!
264
00:18:40,233 --> 00:18:42,667
And then
they just hug and say,
"All right, let's move on."
265
00:18:42,734 --> 00:18:45,867
I'm not... I'm not...You know what?We're brothers.
266
00:18:45,867 --> 00:18:48,066
-I'm sorry.
-There's still a level
of intimidation in it
267
00:18:48,133 --> 00:18:49,266
between them.
268
00:18:49,333 --> 00:18:52,166
[Ashley] House of Carters
was so accurate.
269
00:18:52,166 --> 00:18:54,166
They were always
fighting with each other.
270
00:18:54,900 --> 00:18:56,867
[woman]
Get out of my kitchen.
271
00:18:56,934 --> 00:18:59,767
[Ashley] I hada front row seat for a while.
272
00:18:59,767 --> 00:19:02,767
It was always
bickering like that.
273
00:19:02,767 --> 00:19:07,266
And honestly,out of the entire family,
274
00:19:07,266 --> 00:19:11,867
Leslie and Aaronwere always kind,always respectful.
275
00:19:11,867 --> 00:19:14,967
[Jen] Leslie is themiddle child in the family.
276
00:19:15,033 --> 00:19:16,934
And she was also a musicianin her own right.
277
00:19:18,100 --> 00:19:23,667
She had been taking Xanax
for a long, long time,
278
00:19:23,667 --> 00:19:24,700
just like Aaron.
279
00:19:26,700 --> 00:19:31,333
But I didn't see
a lot of effort
go into helping her.
280
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:37,166
[Ashley] I personallysaw Leslie struggle to cope
281
00:19:37,166 --> 00:19:40,433
with how she was treated
by her family.
282
00:19:41,467 --> 00:19:45,967
She was quietand just really sweet.
283
00:19:50,967 --> 00:19:55,367
Leslie died
in January of 2012
284
00:19:56,266 --> 00:19:59,066
of a drug overdose.
285
00:20:04,100 --> 00:20:07,634
[John] Jane blamed Nickfor Leslie's death.
286
00:20:08,767 --> 00:20:12,533
She told Nick that, uh,
he should have been there
for her.
287
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:14,166
He had the money.
288
00:20:14,166 --> 00:20:15,767
Why didn't he do something?
289
00:20:16,700 --> 00:20:18,433
I don't think it wasNick's responsibility.
290
00:20:22,767 --> 00:20:24,867
But I think Aaron took, uh,
291
00:20:24,867 --> 00:20:27,967
what his momwas saying to heart,
292
00:20:28,033 --> 00:20:30,934
and I think that damaged
their relationship.
293
00:20:31,467 --> 00:20:32,467
I think that was her goal.
294
00:20:32,533 --> 00:20:34,166
I think
she was trying to do that.
295
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:40,266
I started to get blamedby the rest of the family.
296
00:20:40,333 --> 00:20:44,467
[Zena]
On the Dr. Phil show,Nick explains his guilt
297
00:20:44,467 --> 00:20:46,233
around Leslie passing away.
298
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:47,967
[Nick] There was definitely
299
00:20:48,033 --> 00:20:50,100
a part of methat did blame myself
300
00:20:50,100 --> 00:20:53,567
because of the responsibility
that I, sort of, took on
301
00:20:53,567 --> 00:20:57,367
as, um, the oldest member
in my family.
302
00:20:57,433 --> 00:21:01,100
[Zena] I thinkthat's an incrediblytough position to be in.
303
00:21:01,100 --> 00:21:04,000
Why did you not go
to your sister's funeral?
304
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:08,166
The reason I did not go
was because the conversation
305
00:21:08,166 --> 00:21:10,667
turned into
not about her death
306
00:21:10,734 --> 00:21:12,634
and more about themselves.
307
00:21:14,667 --> 00:21:18,066
[Jen] Once Aaron found outthat Nick wasn't coming
308
00:21:18,066 --> 00:21:19,266
to Leslie's funeral,
309
00:21:20,767 --> 00:21:22,567
the first thing
that Jane did
310
00:21:22,634 --> 00:21:26,333
was tell Aaron,
"He doesn't love you.
311
00:21:28,266 --> 00:21:31,734
See? He doesn't love you."
And that's not the truth.
312
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,333
But Aaron became very upsetand very aggressive.
313
00:21:37,367 --> 00:21:40,367
Hitting Janeand had herup against the wall.
314
00:21:40,367 --> 00:21:44,166
It was an... just an insane
moment to be in.
315
00:21:45,266 --> 00:21:48,467
I don't understandwhy a parent
316
00:21:48,467 --> 00:21:51,834
would push so hardto divide two brothers.
317
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,767
[Jen] After Leslie's funeral,it got really dark.
318
00:22:00,767 --> 00:22:05,834
I was really, really concernedfor Nick, and for Aaron.
319
00:22:09,567 --> 00:22:12,567
But then Nick
met someone that said,
320
00:22:12,634 --> 00:22:14,367
"Hey, you need help."
321
00:22:15,467 --> 00:22:17,367
We need to get youin therapy,
322
00:22:17,367 --> 00:22:19,100
start copingwith these things.
323
00:22:19,100 --> 00:22:21,266
[Nick] I kind of puta... a barrier up
324
00:22:21,266 --> 00:22:23,166
that I was nevergonna get married.
325
00:22:23,233 --> 00:22:25,333
That, that was basedon my family.
326
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:28,867
You know,seeing them divorce...
327
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,433
[Jen] Laurenwent to therapy with him.
328
00:22:37,467 --> 00:22:39,667
Well, my parents
divorced when I was nine.
329
00:22:39,667 --> 00:22:42,967
[Jen] To see Nick and Laurenon I (Heart) Nick Carter
330
00:22:42,967 --> 00:22:44,867
was pretty interesting
331
00:22:44,867 --> 00:22:47,166
because that's
really how they are.
332
00:22:47,166 --> 00:22:49,000
The only thing I have is...
is Lauren
333
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:50,367
at the end of the day,
that's it.
334
00:22:50,367 --> 00:22:53,433
That's all I have right now,and that's all I care about.
335
00:22:53,967 --> 00:22:55,967
I saw Nick a few years ago.
336
00:22:56,033 --> 00:22:57,867
He came on my radio show,
337
00:22:57,934 --> 00:23:01,266
and we talkedabout his family.
338
00:23:01,333 --> 00:23:06,867
He was doing his best
to not recreate for his kids
339
00:23:06,867 --> 00:23:10,066
what he went through
as a child.
340
00:23:11,700 --> 00:23:13,867
[Scaachi] Nick wasable to get sober,
341
00:23:13,934 --> 00:23:18,567
get married, build a familyand continue having a career.
342
00:23:26,367 --> 00:23:29,667
But Aaron Carter
only has a career as a child.
343
00:23:31,967 --> 00:23:32,867
[Zena] At a certain point,
344
00:23:32,867 --> 00:23:35,367
the demand
for new Aaron Carter music,
345
00:23:35,367 --> 00:23:37,433
that just wasn't there.
346
00:23:38,367 --> 00:23:40,367
And at the same time,Aaron was dealing
347
00:23:40,367 --> 00:23:42,100
with his ownpersonal troubles,
348
00:23:42,100 --> 00:23:44,367
which he's been open about.
349
00:23:44,367 --> 00:23:47,100
I definitely felt like
I... I hit a rock bottom
350
00:23:47,100 --> 00:23:49,266
personally and emotionally.
351
00:23:49,266 --> 00:23:51,367
And that's when I thought,
352
00:23:51,367 --> 00:23:53,100
you know, this is...this is a time for me
353
00:23:53,100 --> 00:23:56,266
to really go take some timeand do some self-healing.
354
00:23:56,333 --> 00:23:58,367
[Scaachi] The older he gets,
355
00:23:58,367 --> 00:24:01,266
the more troubled
his life seems to be.
356
00:24:01,266 --> 00:24:04,567
You can seehe changed really drastically.
357
00:24:05,567 --> 00:24:08,266
[Mark] After hebecame an adult,
358
00:24:08,266 --> 00:24:10,567
Aaron had to go to rehab and,
359
00:24:10,567 --> 00:24:14,867
and Nick helped Aaron
go through these rehabs.
360
00:24:17,467 --> 00:24:19,266
[Jen] Aaron did try.
361
00:24:19,333 --> 00:24:21,767
Unfortunately, he hadmental health issues
362
00:24:21,767 --> 00:24:23,667
that come alongwith being an addict.
363
00:24:25,266 --> 00:24:28,667
He was a very sensitive,
sensitive person
364
00:24:28,734 --> 00:24:33,767
and all he wanted
was to be loved.
365
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:41,934
[Lina] My nameis Lina Valentina.
366
00:24:43,100 --> 00:24:45,367
Aaron and I dated for a year.
367
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:51,367
It was a very intense year'cause Aaron was struggling
368
00:24:51,367 --> 00:24:53,166
with mental health issues
369
00:24:53,166 --> 00:24:55,934
mixed with a very severedrug addiction.
370
00:24:57,266 --> 00:24:59,100
When he was normal,
371
00:24:59,100 --> 00:25:03,166
he would be,
kind, easy-going...
372
00:25:04,367 --> 00:25:05,567
But then, you know, like,
373
00:25:05,567 --> 00:25:08,967
if Aaron took a Xanax,
it was like facing demon.
374
00:25:11,467 --> 00:25:14,100
Being arounda drug addict is so painful
375
00:25:14,100 --> 00:25:17,333
and really caused a lot
of drifts in the family.
376
00:25:18,700 --> 00:25:20,533
But when Aaron got sober,
377
00:25:21,500 --> 00:25:23,266
the whole familycame together.
378
00:25:24,967 --> 00:25:27,467
[Jen] Nick finally thought,"Maybe I'll have a chance now
379
00:25:27,533 --> 00:25:29,266
to have a relationshipwith my brother.
380
00:25:30,700 --> 00:25:32,834
He's cleaned up,
he's doing good."
381
00:25:34,500 --> 00:25:36,000
[Lina] Aaron lovedhis family.
382
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,367
Like, when him and Nick
started talking again,
383
00:25:38,367 --> 00:25:40,467
he was like, ecstatic
384
00:25:40,467 --> 00:25:43,834
and spent so much timewith Angel, his twin sister.
385
00:25:45,367 --> 00:25:48,867
He was just happy,he was healthy.
386
00:25:53,767 --> 00:25:56,467
And thenhe went back on tour.
387
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:58,467
[crowd cheering]
388
00:25:59,100 --> 00:26:01,066
[Lina] He said,"I need Xanax.
389
00:26:01,133 --> 00:26:03,834
I'm on tourand tour's so stressful."
390
00:26:04,767 --> 00:26:06,934
And end of July,
he relapsed.
391
00:26:08,867 --> 00:26:10,867
He would go liveon Instagram.
392
00:26:10,934 --> 00:26:12,367
Boom. I know
how to lure you in.
393
00:26:12,367 --> 00:26:15,367
It's so easy.
Look at 2.5...
4,000 people here.
394
00:26:15,433 --> 00:26:18,066
[Lina] He bought,like, five rifles.
395
00:26:18,133 --> 00:26:19,467
You always
gotta stay strapped.
396
00:26:20,367 --> 00:26:25,000
[Lina] He was going liveactually holding rifles,
397
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:26,967
telling people he'sthe Joker.
398
00:26:26,967 --> 00:26:27,900
[Aaron] I'm the Joker.
399
00:26:27,900 --> 00:26:30,166
I'm not playing your game.
You're playing mine.
400
00:26:30,166 --> 00:26:32,567
And it just got worse
and worse and worse.
401
00:26:32,567 --> 00:26:34,367
I'm not one to [bleep] with.
402
00:26:34,367 --> 00:26:37,667
[Lina] Angel and Nickwere really tryingto get him help.
403
00:26:38,467 --> 00:26:41,066
So and then
Nick goes on Twitter.
404
00:26:41,066 --> 00:26:43,467
Ooh, if you need my help...
Shut the [bleep] up, bro.
405
00:26:43,467 --> 00:26:46,066
[Jen] Nick called mevery concernedabout his brother.
406
00:26:47,066 --> 00:26:48,967
And he started crying.
407
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:52,634
And he told me abouthow Aaron had been acting.
408
00:26:54,066 --> 00:26:55,667
How erratic he was being.
409
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:00,867
[Lina] A few weeksafter he relapsed,
410
00:27:00,867 --> 00:27:04,066
Aaron started talking
about his visions...
411
00:27:05,367 --> 00:27:08,734
of killing Lauren,Nick's wife, and children.
412
00:27:11,567 --> 00:27:13,066
I was afraid.
413
00:27:16,300 --> 00:27:18,133
Me and Angelwent to the police.
414
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:20,667
There was no help.
415
00:27:20,734 --> 00:27:23,467
But they said,
"Well, if you file
a restraining order,
416
00:27:23,467 --> 00:27:26,634
by law, the police are gonna
have to take the guns away."
417
00:27:28,767 --> 00:27:30,367
[Jen] Nick felt hopeless.
418
00:27:31,900 --> 00:27:34,066
All of a sudden, you've gonefrom being a loving brother
419
00:27:34,066 --> 00:27:37,533
to someone
who has to protect themselves.
420
00:27:39,500 --> 00:27:41,367
It was like watching
421
00:27:41,433 --> 00:27:43,767
a roller coasterbecome unhinged.
422
00:27:44,266 --> 00:27:45,367
You can't stop the ride.
423
00:27:45,367 --> 00:27:48,467
[speaking indistinctly]
424
00:27:48,467 --> 00:27:49,867
[Jen] All you can dois just sit there
425
00:27:49,867 --> 00:27:53,166
and pray that it comes downand lands safely.
426
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:55,367
There's one right there.
427
00:27:55,433 --> 00:27:56,767
I can't be silenced.
428
00:27:56,767 --> 00:27:57,734
[cocks rifle]
429
00:28:11,567 --> 00:28:15,033
I was not keeping track
of Aaron Carter.
430
00:28:15,767 --> 00:28:18,367
You know,we were both child stars
431
00:28:18,367 --> 00:28:21,934
in that early 2000,sort of, teen pop frenzy.
432
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:27,767
But I was not aware
of things reported
433
00:28:27,767 --> 00:28:30,433
in the mediaprior to speaking to Aaron.
434
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:33,166
[line ringing]
435
00:28:34,166 --> 00:28:36,467
[Melissa over phone]
Hi, Aaron. How are you?
436
00:28:36,467 --> 00:28:38,567
[Aaron over phone] I'm good.I'm good. I'm good.
437
00:28:42,266 --> 00:28:44,667
Initially, there was
a level of concern.
438
00:28:44,667 --> 00:28:46,233
I said as much to Melissa.
439
00:28:47,667 --> 00:28:50,133
But she found somebodythat she could relate to.
440
00:28:52,667 --> 00:28:54,467
[Melissa] He told mehe believed me.
441
00:28:54,467 --> 00:28:58,467
And he was just,
like, "That's my brother."
442
00:28:58,533 --> 00:29:01,467
Eventually we went liveon Instagram together.
443
00:29:01,533 --> 00:29:03,467
So don't imprison me
444
00:29:03,467 --> 00:29:05,533
and expect me
not to fight back.
445
00:29:06,266 --> 00:29:09,266
He clearly suffered
from extreme trauma,
446
00:29:09,266 --> 00:29:11,567
and he's disclosing to me
447
00:29:11,634 --> 00:29:12,767
extreme trauma.
448
00:29:12,767 --> 00:29:14,634
I get...I get what you mean.
449
00:29:15,767 --> 00:29:18,367
He expressed
his support of me.
450
00:29:19,867 --> 00:29:21,767
But then the next day,
451
00:29:21,767 --> 00:29:24,867
Nick Carter
and his sister, Angel,
452
00:29:24,867 --> 00:29:26,433
filed restraining orders.
453
00:29:30,166 --> 00:29:31,867
The media got a hold of it.
454
00:29:31,867 --> 00:29:33,000
[reporter] Well,Nick Carter says
455
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:34,266
he took outthe restraining order
456
00:29:34,266 --> 00:29:37,533
because Aaron threatenedto kill his pregnant wife.
457
00:29:38,066 --> 00:29:40,667
It was an absolute circus.
458
00:29:42,066 --> 00:29:46,066
I felt thatit was a strategic action
459
00:29:46,133 --> 00:29:49,266
taken to retaliate
against Aaron
460
00:29:49,266 --> 00:29:51,433
for saying those things
about his brother.
461
00:29:52,066 --> 00:29:53,967
And for speakingto me publicly
462
00:29:54,033 --> 00:29:55,734
on his Instagram platform.
463
00:29:57,467 --> 00:29:58,934
And that's how Aaron felt.
464
00:30:01,867 --> 00:30:03,867
The talks
of the restraining order
465
00:30:03,867 --> 00:30:06,967
been around for a while.
466
00:30:06,967 --> 00:30:09,000
It had to do nothing
with her.
467
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:10,266
It had everything to do
468
00:30:10,333 --> 00:30:12,467
with, literally,getting Aaron help
469
00:30:12,533 --> 00:30:13,934
and getting the guns away.
470
00:30:15,100 --> 00:30:16,967
[reporter] The claimsof increased bizarre behavior
471
00:30:17,033 --> 00:30:18,533
has his family worried.
472
00:30:21,667 --> 00:30:23,567
[reporter] Nick saysthat he still loves Aaron,
473
00:30:23,567 --> 00:30:25,767
and he hopes he getsthe proper treatment he needs.
474
00:30:27,767 --> 00:30:34,667
In my experience,
that family has always
been in and out of these,
475
00:30:34,667 --> 00:30:38,533
these, these epic feuds
with, with one another.
476
00:30:39,500 --> 00:30:44,567
But I had feltinside that Aaron
477
00:30:44,567 --> 00:30:47,333
was being genuinein his support.
478
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:53,066
Aaron was on Instagram
live quite a bit
479
00:30:53,967 --> 00:30:56,367
and he had reached out
and just said,
480
00:30:56,367 --> 00:30:57,567
"You know, like,
I really want to, like,
481
00:30:57,567 --> 00:30:59,467
publicly support you.
482
00:30:59,467 --> 00:31:02,367
Give you a platform
to speak on this."
483
00:31:02,433 --> 00:31:05,867
Everybody, Ashley,
unfortunately, when she was 15
484
00:31:05,867 --> 00:31:07,233
was raped by my brother
485
00:31:08,100 --> 00:31:10,767
in the Florida Keys and...
486
00:31:10,767 --> 00:31:13,166
This was...
this was huge.
487
00:31:13,233 --> 00:31:14,266
I am here for you
488
00:31:14,266 --> 00:31:15,667
and I have got
these women's back
489
00:31:15,667 --> 00:31:18,266
and any women who have
been abused or hurt,
490
00:31:18,266 --> 00:31:19,567
I am here
to fight for you,
491
00:31:19,634 --> 00:31:21,667
and I will [bleep]
fight for you and I will win.
492
00:31:21,667 --> 00:31:25,066
[Ashley] It meant a lot to meand I was appreciative.
493
00:31:26,066 --> 00:31:29,567
But at the same time,
I also I felt bad
494
00:31:29,567 --> 00:31:33,233
because I knew he was
about to be attacked.
495
00:31:34,767 --> 00:31:35,767
[Melissa] I told him.I said,
496
00:31:35,767 --> 00:31:39,166
"Aaron, they're
going to come after you."
497
00:31:39,567 --> 00:31:40,667
I've been through it.
498
00:31:40,667 --> 00:31:41,667
I've seen it.
499
00:31:41,734 --> 00:31:43,033
I've experienced it.
500
00:31:43,900 --> 00:31:46,166
But nobody
can prepare anybody,
501
00:31:46,233 --> 00:31:50,634
even Aaron Carter,
for what followed.
502
00:31:51,700 --> 00:31:53,066
[Aaron]
I stand up for women,
503
00:31:53,066 --> 00:31:55,000
and then all of a suddenthis starts happening,
504
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,333
and every timeI talk about it,more and more.
505
00:31:58,000 --> 00:31:59,567
Wait, you're
Nick Carter's brother
506
00:31:59,567 --> 00:32:00,867
from the Backstreet Boys?
507
00:32:01,467 --> 00:32:04,967
People were
in his live streams,
508
00:32:04,967 --> 00:32:06,266
in his chats saying things
509
00:32:06,266 --> 00:32:10,567
to purposely upset him
or to get him to lash out.
510
00:32:10,567 --> 00:32:13,066
It got worse and worse
and worse as time went on.
511
00:32:13,066 --> 00:32:14,934
Labeled me a pedophile
and put me in prison.
512
00:32:15,767 --> 00:32:17,166
[bleep] are you
talking about?
513
00:32:17,767 --> 00:32:19,066
That's rude.
514
00:32:19,066 --> 00:32:20,467
Come on, show your face.
515
00:32:20,467 --> 00:32:23,767
Are you hiding like a troll
under a bridge?
516
00:32:23,767 --> 00:32:26,867
I'm basically, like,
defending myself,
517
00:32:26,867 --> 00:32:29,333
and it's, like,
putting myself in danger.
518
00:32:30,166 --> 00:32:32,367
"Aaron Charles Carter,
your time is coming."
519
00:32:33,100 --> 00:32:36,467
I was worried about him
as someone
520
00:32:36,467 --> 00:32:40,266
who saw him coming up
when he was very young,
521
00:32:40,266 --> 00:32:42,567
and all of a suddenhe's doing appearances
522
00:32:42,567 --> 00:32:44,567
and he's got face tattoos.
523
00:32:44,567 --> 00:32:46,266
-You've got
some new ink on your face...
-Yeah.
524
00:32:46,266 --> 00:32:48,667
-And your neck.
-Medusa is my protector.
525
00:32:48,667 --> 00:32:52,266
If you want to come at me
with some negativity,
526
00:32:52,266 --> 00:32:55,333
my Medusa
will stare you in the eye
and turn you into stone.
527
00:32:56,867 --> 00:33:00,967
Aaron was a young man
in distress.
528
00:33:01,033 --> 00:33:04,867
It was obvious
that he was really hurting.
529
00:33:04,867 --> 00:33:07,266
You guys can thank
all the smear campaign people.
530
00:33:07,266 --> 00:33:08,166
Congratulations.
531
00:33:08,233 --> 00:33:09,467
You guys won.
532
00:33:09,467 --> 00:33:13,867
And watching Aaron,
he was completely
unpredictable at times.
533
00:33:13,934 --> 00:33:15,867
He had told Melissa
he would never take back
534
00:33:15,867 --> 00:33:19,333
anything he saidabout her or Ashley,
535
00:33:20,166 --> 00:33:22,033
but within threeor four months,
536
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:24,166
guess what happens?
537
00:33:25,100 --> 00:33:27,333
Do you want to say
hi to Aaron Carter?
538
00:33:29,700 --> 00:33:30,834
Good morning.
539
00:33:32,567 --> 00:33:37,166
Molly Golightly,
who, literally, after years
540
00:33:37,233 --> 00:33:42,166
of harassing my daughter,
somehow, magically appears
541
00:33:42,667 --> 00:33:44,066
in Aaron's life
542
00:33:45,166 --> 00:33:47,367
and purportsto be his life coach.
543
00:33:49,266 --> 00:33:50,567
[indistinct conversation]
544
00:33:51,266 --> 00:33:54,767
Melissa Schuman,
in my opinion,
545
00:33:54,767 --> 00:33:58,533
based upon after bringing her
into the black web,
546
00:33:59,667 --> 00:34:00,834
was never raped.
547
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,000
When Aaron started interacting
548
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,166
publicly with
Molly Golightly
549
00:34:12,166 --> 00:34:14,533
and he was recantinghis support of me,
550
00:34:15,266 --> 00:34:16,266
I wasn't mad.
551
00:34:18,266 --> 00:34:20,867
Aaron was the biggest target
at this point.
552
00:34:23,467 --> 00:34:25,967
I think Aaron thought
it would stop the harassment
553
00:34:26,033 --> 00:34:27,467
if he just did this.
554
00:34:27,467 --> 00:34:31,000
The validity behindwhat she has been doing
555
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:32,867
is not valid.
There is none.
556
00:34:32,867 --> 00:34:34,066
But to be very honest,
557
00:34:34,133 --> 00:34:35,967
that harassment
really didn't go away.
558
00:34:36,033 --> 00:34:37,667
Like, everyone's
so mean to me.
559
00:34:37,667 --> 00:34:41,166
And now
that I'm fighting back,
here they come.
560
00:34:42,467 --> 00:34:45,567
[Jerry] But this alliancebetween Melissa and Aaron
561
00:34:45,634 --> 00:34:48,367
openly communicating,were shut off.
562
00:34:52,300 --> 00:34:53,767
Aaron had very thin skin.
563
00:34:54,567 --> 00:34:56,533
And I think Aaronwas super lonely.
564
00:34:57,100 --> 00:34:58,367
The people on the Internet,
565
00:34:58,367 --> 00:34:59,667
though they were
unkind to him,
566
00:34:59,734 --> 00:35:00,600
they were company.
567
00:35:09,667 --> 00:35:11,100
[Melanie] My name isMelanie Martin
568
00:35:11,100 --> 00:35:13,266
and Iwas Aaron Carter's fiancée.
569
00:35:14,500 --> 00:35:16,100
You are beautiful.
570
00:35:16,100 --> 00:35:17,166
You are gorgeous.
571
00:35:17,166 --> 00:35:18,266
You are smart.
572
00:35:20,100 --> 00:35:23,734
[Melanie] Aaron and I meton Instagram in late 2019.
573
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:30,133
He was just so genuine,
silly, passionate and fun.
574
00:35:30,967 --> 00:35:32,467
When I first met him,
575
00:35:32,467 --> 00:35:35,767
he was taking
his medication normally.
576
00:35:37,467 --> 00:35:38,734
[scatting]
577
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:43,333
But I noticed
a change fairly early.
578
00:35:46,667 --> 00:35:48,467
[Gwen Cataranzo]
Unfortunately, with addiction,
579
00:35:48,467 --> 00:35:51,834
it's an illness that...
it's very hard to beat.
580
00:35:53,767 --> 00:35:57,567
And Aaron and Melaniehad a turbulent relationship,
581
00:35:57,567 --> 00:35:59,233
as he didwith most people.
582
00:36:01,567 --> 00:36:02,467
[Melanie] He was, you know,
583
00:36:02,467 --> 00:36:05,367
in a constant
battle with his family,
584
00:36:05,433 --> 00:36:07,266
and he kind of didn't
585
00:36:07,266 --> 00:36:10,066
really explain that to me
when I first met him.
586
00:36:10,133 --> 00:36:12,533
And I didn't pay attention
as much as I should have.
587
00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:17,066
I just kept on thinking,
"We can do this.
588
00:36:17,133 --> 00:36:18,667
We love each other enough."
589
00:36:18,667 --> 00:36:21,333
[Aaron] All right, so there's
the little 12-week-old.
590
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,667
[Melanie] And thenmy pregnancy happened.
591
00:36:26,734 --> 00:36:27,567
[Aaron] Mmm-hmm.
592
00:36:28,367 --> 00:36:30,667
[Mark] He wouldcall me periodically,
593
00:36:30,667 --> 00:36:33,667
and he was so excited
about this child.
594
00:36:33,734 --> 00:36:34,533
And said, you know,
595
00:36:34,533 --> 00:36:36,033
"Hey, I'm gonna
get my life straight.
596
00:36:37,166 --> 00:36:39,066
I want to be a good dad.
597
00:36:39,066 --> 00:36:40,767
And I'm gonnachange everything."
598
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,867
Unfortunately, it just got
really stressful.
599
00:36:47,967 --> 00:36:51,166
He was more investedin the Internet
600
00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:53,066
versus our relationship.
601
00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:56,567
You got a lot of negativity
602
00:36:56,567 --> 00:36:58,767
from going live
and social media.
603
00:36:58,767 --> 00:37:00,166
You're just constantly lying
604
00:37:00,166 --> 00:37:01,367
and manipulating
and all of that,
605
00:37:01,367 --> 00:37:03,867
and it kind ofmakes you a bad person.
606
00:37:03,867 --> 00:37:06,834
The bullying
that he endured was horrific.
607
00:37:11,500 --> 00:37:14,166
[Melanie]
People calling his concertsand canceling his events.
608
00:37:21,667 --> 00:37:24,266
YouTubers were
calling in restaurants,
609
00:37:24,333 --> 00:37:26,834
trying to get us taken
out of the restaurant.
610
00:37:39,266 --> 00:37:41,333
[Melanie] He wasso bothered by it
611
00:37:42,667 --> 00:37:45,166
that he was spending
all of his money
612
00:37:45,166 --> 00:37:46,934
on private investigators.
613
00:37:51,367 --> 00:37:55,533
I am a 24-year state
licensed private detective.
614
00:37:56,500 --> 00:37:59,567
I was hiredby Aaron Carter.
615
00:37:59,634 --> 00:38:05,166
He told me that he wasthe victim of harassment.
616
00:38:05,166 --> 00:38:07,467
Somebody shot and killed
a [bleep] dead bird
617
00:38:07,467 --> 00:38:09,166
and threw it on my porch.
618
00:38:09,166 --> 00:38:13,667
And he wanted some help
getting it to stop.
619
00:38:13,667 --> 00:38:18,567
It appears a lot of this stuffwas from a YouTube streamer
620
00:38:18,634 --> 00:38:20,767
that goes
by the name of "Ganval."
621
00:38:21,900 --> 00:38:23,233
Don't be a bitch, Aaron.
622
00:38:27,100 --> 00:38:28,867
[Jennifer]
Ganval calls himself
623
00:38:28,867 --> 00:38:30,567
Aaron Carter'sarch nemesis.
624
00:38:30,567 --> 00:38:34,000
A [bleep] washed up duster.Don't you have a...
625
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,033
[Jennifer] Almostevery single videothat was on his channel
626
00:38:37,266 --> 00:38:39,233
was Aaron.
627
00:38:40,100 --> 00:38:41,834
If you go to his Twitter,
628
00:38:43,667 --> 00:38:46,166
a lot of the posts
are directed towards Aaron.
629
00:38:47,767 --> 00:38:51,233
Ganval has a Discord server.
630
00:38:51,867 --> 00:38:53,667
One of the main subjects
631
00:38:53,667 --> 00:38:57,767
that they talkabout is Aaron Carter.
632
00:38:57,767 --> 00:39:01,233
Troll the [bleep] out
of this scum piece of [bleep].
633
00:39:02,467 --> 00:39:03,967
Aaron, you're pathetic.
634
00:39:03,967 --> 00:39:07,266
And he sounds like a [bleep]
schizophrenic lunatic.
635
00:39:07,333 --> 00:39:10,000
I understand that you're
mentally, like, delusional
636
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,467
but are you [bleep]?
637
00:39:12,467 --> 00:39:14,967
I said the baby
should be euthanized.
638
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:19,767
Aaron is live streaming
and Aaron sees everything.
639
00:39:19,767 --> 00:39:22,467
You just threatened me
with physical violence.
640
00:39:22,533 --> 00:39:24,367
[indistinct conversation]
641
00:39:24,367 --> 00:39:26,967
[Jennifer] It was likepsychological warfare.
642
00:39:26,967 --> 00:39:30,467
[indistinct overlapping
conversations]
643
00:39:30,467 --> 00:39:32,266
[Aaron] They're gonna kill me.
644
00:39:32,266 --> 00:39:36,033
[Jennifer] And Aaron believedthat his family was behind it.
645
00:39:37,667 --> 00:39:40,166
My brother.
Clearly, he's doing it.
646
00:39:40,233 --> 00:39:42,767
Lauren Kitt.
Clearly, she's doing it.
647
00:39:42,767 --> 00:39:46,533
It only started when
I [bleep] became a voice
for rape victims.
648
00:39:47,266 --> 00:39:48,634
For people who got raped.
649
00:39:52,767 --> 00:39:55,266
[Jennifer] And then,I found out that there was
650
00:39:55,266 --> 00:40:00,066
footage of Ganvaldoing a live stream
651
00:40:00,700 --> 00:40:02,333
with Lauren Kitt Carter.
652
00:40:02,700 --> 00:40:04,467
Nick Carter's wife.
653
00:40:04,467 --> 00:40:07,567
-Hey.
-It's nice
to finally meet you.
654
00:40:07,567 --> 00:40:09,667
I've been with my husband
now for 12 years,
655
00:40:09,667 --> 00:40:13,166
and this is something I've
dealt with for 12 years.
656
00:40:13,166 --> 00:40:15,266
[Jennifer] Why wouldhis sister in-law
657
00:40:15,333 --> 00:40:18,667
be online with an individual
that spends his days
658
00:40:18,667 --> 00:40:21,100
trying to trolland harass Aaron?
659
00:40:21,100 --> 00:40:22,667
It didn't make sense.
660
00:40:22,734 --> 00:40:24,567
I don't know
my brother-in-law anymore.
661
00:40:24,567 --> 00:40:27,767
My husband and his sister
and our family don't know--
662
00:40:27,767 --> 00:40:29,567
Are you trying to say
I caused...
663
00:40:29,567 --> 00:40:32,166
[Jennifer] But unfortunately,there was more.
664
00:40:32,166 --> 00:40:33,567
You guys
aren't gonna believe me,
665
00:40:33,567 --> 00:40:34,467
and I'll show you if you want.
666
00:40:34,467 --> 00:40:35,467
But this is real.
667
00:40:37,467 --> 00:40:40,667
[Jennifer] There's actuallive footage of Ganval
668
00:40:40,667 --> 00:40:44,934
when he received a donationmade by Lauren Kitt Carter.
669
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:49,867
After I found out that
there was donated money,
670
00:40:49,934 --> 00:40:53,066
now I believe they didwant to silence Aaron.
671
00:40:54,567 --> 00:40:55,667
Now do you believe me?
672
00:40:56,700 --> 00:40:58,166
Now? Now?
Now do you believe me?57975
